Gain (3) should be adjusted so that the green LED ashes in time with the source, and turns red only on the loudest peaks. If adding EQ results in clipping (red LED), compensate here by reducing gain (3). e red clipping LED lights when roughly 5dB of headroom remains.Gaine Input Gain control is used to establish proper gain structure in the channel. e input gain can be adjusted over a wide range to compensate for so voices or very loud drums. To maxi-mize the signal-to-noise ratio, the gain should be set to the proper level, with the Level Knob (10) set to 0. If the clip LED comes on and remains lit, try reducing the gain.High EQis High EQ shelving type of active tone control varies the treble frequencies (+/- 15 dB at 12 kHz) and is designed to remove noise or add brilliance to the signal, depending on the quality of the source.Mid EQWhere most mid-range controls work at just one frequency, the Mid-Morph works at two. When turned counterclockwise, it cuts at 250 Hz to reduce frequencies that muddy the sound. When turned clockwise, it boosts at 4 kHz to add intelligibility to vocals. Either way, improved vocal or instrument denition can be achieved.Low EQA shelving type of EQ that varies the bass frequency levels (+/- 15 dB at 80 Hz). Low EQ adds depth to thin-sounding signals or cleans up the muddy ones. As with any EQ, use sparingly. Too much of this EQ can give you a booming bottom end. Caution: Excessive low frequency boost causes greater power consumption and increases the possibility of speaker damage.EQ BypassEngaging this button bypasses the equalization of the channel.EFX Sendis control adjusts the level of the channel signal added to the eects mix. e signal is sent to the internal eects processor (PV6 BT) or the EFX send jack (PV6). Turning the knob to the le (min) will turn o eects on the associated channel, while turning the knob to the right will increase the amount of the selected eect.Panis knob controls the placement of the signal in the stereo eld. When rotated completely coun-terclockwise‚ the signal is present only on the le channel; when rotated completely clockwise‚ only in the right channel. is control functions as a balance control to adjust the relative level of the le and right signals on stereo channels.Channel Levelis controls the output level of the channel into the main mix. e gain is 0 dB when set to the detent at mid-rotation (12:00). 10 dB of boost is available at the max gain setting. Normal opera-tion is to start with this knob at the detent, and set the input gain and EQ with the source playing such that normal levels are seen at the bicolor LED and the main meter array. As additional sources are added, it is normal to turn this knob down slightly.21

LevelAdjusts the level of the source selected by (11).Global Compressor Enable ButtonWhen depressed, the compressor is enabled. LED MetersTwo six-segment LED arrays are provided to monitor the levels of the main le/right outputs. ese meters range from -18 dBu to +19dBu.e highest green LED corresponds to +4 dBu at the outputs.Digital Return LevelControls the signal level coming in to the USB digital audio port, typi-cally from a USB-equipped computer. e nominal setting is near 12:00 for this control.To Control RoomWhen depressed, USB digital audio return is routed to the control room and headphone outputs. Use this setting when recording with DAW soware to avoid unintended loops.To MainWhen depressed, USB digital audio return is routed to the Main sum-ming amp.  is setting is recommended only when there is a requirement to playback through the main outputs, at which time the DAW soware must have input monitoring disabled. Beware of creating an unintended loop, which results in very LOUD and uncontrolled oscillation that can damage loudspeak-ers and eardrums!RCA Connectors for MonitorConnect powered monitors, or an amplier feeding monitor speakers here. Set the volume controls on the monitors A and B to be equal when the A/B switch is toggled. e signal sent to this output is normally the Le/Right mix. When the "To Control Room" switch (17) is engaged, the USB return signal is also sent to the Monitor Outputs.A/B Toggle SwitchWhen depressed, the A outputs are muted and the B outputs are on. When raised, the A outputs are on and the B outputsare muted. is allows the easy checking of a computer DAW mix on two dierent sets of monitors.Monitor LevelUse this control to set the listening level in your control room monitors. e optimum setting for this control is 12:00, so monitor amplier levels (or powered monitor levels) should be adjusted with this knob at 12:00. ere is an additional 17 dB of gain available on this pot at the max position.Phantom Poweris Switch applies +48 VDC voltage to the input XLR connectors to power microphones requiring phantom power. If phantom power is used, do not connect unbalanced dynamic microphones or other devices to the XLRinputs that cannot handle this Voltage.
EFX Levelis is the master output level control for the EFX mix. e output level sent to the EFX Send jack is controlled by the Channel Level Control (10), the channel EFX Send controls (8), and by this master control. e 12:00 position is the recommended setting for this control. Headphone Levelis knob sets the headphone and control room output levels. To avoid damage to your hearing‚ make sure to turn the dial fully coun-terclockwise before using headphones. Slowly turn the knob clockwise until you reach a comfortable listening level.Compressor ControlAdjusting this knob clockwise lowers the threshold of the compressor, thereby increasing the amount of compression. e compressor ratio is in the 4:1 range, varying with signal levels and the amount of compression. is is useful for controlling peak levels from live sources. e compressor is aer the master level control(26), and before the main outs (35) and the USB port(39), so it can be used to tame vocals being recorded into a DAW. You can audition the eect of the compressor by switching it in and out with the Enable switch (14). When the compressor is active, the adjacent red LED will illuminate.Levelis is the master level control, which controls the overall level sent to the main outputs (35) and the USB port (39).Headphone Outpute Headphone Output is a 1⁄4” TRS (Tip= Le; Ring = Right; Sleeve = Ground) jack. e signal sent to this output is normally the Le/Right mix. When the "To Control Room" switch (17) is engaged, the USB return signal is also sent to the headphones.2425262723PV®6 Front Panel
